Seoul Tofu

We like coming here for the tofu soup mostly. The combo is a choice of main dish with the tofu soup of your choice. Galbi and tendon tofu soup was about $38. It is in the higher side price wise. The Galbi was sweet savory and grilled to perfection. The tendon tofu soup was a good choice as well.

Very tasty and consistent Korean food. So many different flavors with all the little appetizer dishes! Friendly staff and vibe. Great value, I could share a meal.

I stayed at my friend’s place for five days while I was in LA. On the last day, I wanted to repay them a bit with a meal. It was a nice Korean place. I knew they wouldn’t let me pay, so I slipped out in the middle of the meal, gave my card to the waiter, and paid. I really thanked him for going along with it. The place was packed by noon. I can see why it’s popular.

Overall pretty good food, with nothing particularly standing out to be spectacular, but with nothing exceptionally terrible, either. All of the dishes contain good flavor and can offer an authentic Korean cuisine experience without a doubt. I came here with a group of friends so we ordered a few dishes to share altogether. The seafood pancakes were leaning on the plain side relatively and personally I felt like it contained a bit too much dough and not enough of seafood or scallions, but it still had good texture. The jap chae was as standard as I could imagine, which was a positive thing because the dish itself basically was seasoned vermicelli noodles, meaning delicious. The soon tofu was pretty standard. The hot stone bibimbap was also as standard as I could imagine, and of course I used gochujang on it which made it flavorful. Both the spicy pork bulgogi and the galbi were seasoned well enough, which was pretty good. Not the best I have had anywhere, but good enough for me to say that it resembled what I have had in Korea. Since this establishment is on a very popular and busy street, I recommend people walking there if they are able to. I lived close to the area so I basically walked there and enjoyed everything else the street had to offer as well. It also tends to get very busy on weekends so I recommend people arriving early if they are there for lunch.

This place has been around for a while. Food quality is stably good. I won’t say it’s ktown level good but one of the best you can get in west LA. Bibimbap + tofu soup is a great value combo that’s large enough for me as 2 meals.

Well-rounded Korean tofu place but with a bit steeper price tag compared to a few years ago. We stick to soong tofu (tofu soup with the protein of your choice or veggie) and it tastes decent when served with rice. We ordered the mixed version (seafood, pork and beef) combo, which comes with grilled bulgogi beef as a side entree. The side dish (banchan) comes with 6 mini plates with fish cake, pickled daikon, kimchi, broccoli, mashed potato and bean sprouts. Make sure you ask them to refill!

💣💣💣 JUST BOMB! MY FAVORITE K-FOOD without having to drive to K-Town. I got the galbi beef and Sundubu-jjigae combo. Boy the waiter thought I couldn’t finish but I DEMOLISH that food in a heartbeat! Mucho delicious 🤓
